## Summary description

Microshift ACOLYTE 8-speed cassette made of steel with sprocket sizes 12-15-18-21-24-28-34-42, designed for use with ACOLYTE drivetrains. Provides a wide gear range for varied terrain, durability from steel construction, and compatibility with 8-speed freehub bodies. Suitable for mountain or gravel bikes needing robust, long-lasting gearing.

## Long description

The Microshift ACOLYTE 8-speed steel cassette with sprocket sizes 12-15-18-21-24-28-34-42 in black is a replacement drivetrain component engineered for 8-speed systems. Constructed from steel, the cassette delivers durable tooth profiles and consistent shifting across a broad 12–42T range, providing low gears for steep climbs and higher gears for flats. It is intended for use with ACOLYTE drivetrains and compatible 8-speed freehub bodies on mountain, gravel or rugged touring bikes where longevity and robust performance are priorities.
Advantages
The steel construction offers increased wear resistance and a longer service life compared with softer alloys, while the stepped sprocket progression ensures predictable gear changes and manageable cadence control across varied terrain. The wide 12–42T spread gives a large overall ratio range without requiring special hub spacing, and the black finish reduces visible corrosion and integrates visually with dark drivetrains.
Suitable for
Mountain biking on mixed or steep terrain
Gravel riding and adventure cycling
Long-distance touring with varied loads
Replacement on 8-speed bikes requiring robust, long-lasting cassettes

How to use
Install the cassette onto a compatible 8-speed freehub body using the correct lockring torque and standard cassette tools. Ensure the freehub and hub bearings are clean and lightly greased where appropriate, then fit the sprockets in the correct orientation and tighten the lockring to the manufacturer’s recommended torque. Adjust derailleur limit screws and cable tension after installation to achieve precise indexing across all eight gears. Regular inspection of tooth wear and drivetrain alignment will help maintain smooth shifting.
Usage recommendations
For optimal longevity, pair the cassette with a compatible 8-speed chain and maintain a regular lubrication and cleaning schedule. Replace the chain at recommended wear intervals to prevent accelerated sprocket wear. When riding in wet or muddy conditions, rinse and re-lubricate the drivetrain to reduce corrosion and abrasive wear.
